One Eyed Yeti.

The One Eyed yeti... the idea came from Ryon Xavior http://www.htxbstudio.com/wordpress/ (go check him out.. you gotta check his sculpts.. some crazy stuff).

Unfortunately... I kind of put it off.. but Xavior was sooo patient. And it was in the back of my mind. I didn't want to give him JUST a one eyed yeti..
Tried of thinking of something I could throw on him to make the yeti seem different.

SoOooooooo.......
the little back story I made for this guy... He eats children.. but also hides among them by dressing up as them. *** Gasp *** that's why the Yeti is so hard to find.

good morning daddy

threw this together. I get antsy when waiting for feedback...
so I burn the extra energy by doing something productive.

Thought this one would be fun. A little kid seeing daddy off to work.

Dagonlily


boy insomnia keeps me pretty productive these days....
but I thought it might be fun to draw a character in cosplay... The design is my own...
But I figure if I say its cosplay.. it gives me some fun to mash stuff together.

I dream of

Well I would be dreaming of....
but I have a serious case of insominia tonite. So what I'm doing.. drawing of course.
I had all these little doodles of robots. so I thought I might make into something.
I sometimes do these little cute bots as a exercise for shapes.

Deviant art is also having a contest about dreams.. funny enough.... oh man I wish I could sleep!

自主制作アニメ - フミコの告白 Independent production anime

I found a translation

boy- " sorry, I want to focus on baseball now"
girl-" Takashi is stupid!"

-(end of first conversation) Crazy animation

"Takashi !?"
" ILL MAKE MISO SOUP FOR YOU EVERYDAY!"
boy(takashi)-" sorry, I want to focus on baseball now"
END



one more vid from Production IG (studio)
Beautifully done.. like a moving painting.

Kick Ass

I can't wait to see this movie.
Kick-ass!

If you havn't herd about the comic.. it's about a young teen who decides to become a super hero (in real world rules.. no powers no skills... The only thing he has that makes him stand out from anyone else, is that he has a metal plate in his head from a accident. Funny thing is I knew a kid like that in grade school. He used to take money people by betting who would pass out first from banging their head against the wall.

The comic series is still in production. I believe the last of the issue comes out dec.
It's funny how the comic isn't even finished and it's already been turned into a movie.

Oh yeah also it was filmed in Toronto. Gooooo TO!
